Squirrels

Why a post about squirrels? Because they are funny. Because people manipulate them to make them more funny. Because they remind me of their presence every day as they run across my porch, vainly searching for the dog food that used to be there when I had a dog. The firewood isn't stacked all that neatly; they probably have a few nests in there. Because I just managed to have a lot of squirrely material. Please enjoy some of it!
Squirrels are trying to take over the world!
The story of the EVIL MUTANT ATTACK SQUIRREL OF DEATH!
Squirrel vs. cat. All this over nuts the cat won't eat anyway. Or is it bait?
Suger Bush Squirrel, the superstar of squirrels.
Finnegan was a baby squirrel adopted by a mother dog. (Thanks, Kip!)
Twiggy, the water-skiing squirrel. There is a video at this site.
Squirrels attack and kill dog.
Send a virtual squirrel.
Video of a squirrel repellant in action. Some people get their kicks in odd ways. I bet they also watch the bug zapper.
HUNTING TRIP
A father and son went hunting together for the first time.
The father said, "Stay here and be very QUIET. I'll be across the field." A few minutes later, the father heard a blood curdling scream and ran back to his son.
"What's wrong?" the father asked. "I told you to be quiet."
The son answered, "Look, I was quiet when the snake slithered across my feet. I was quiet when the bear breathed down my neck.
But when the two squirrels crawled up my pant legs and said, 'Should we eat them here or take them with us?'
"I guess I just panicked...."
Squirrels are quick and cheerful animals who spend their time scurrying, scavenging, and playing. As a squirrel, you are often seen jumping happily from branch to branch up in the treetops. Squirrels are foragers searching for nuts and seeds, and they are social animals often seen chasing and playing with other squirrels.You were almost a: Pony or a Monkey
You are least like a: Turtle or a GroundhogDiscover What Cute Animal You Are!
RERUN JOKE
Squirrels had overrun three churches in town.
After much prayer, the elders of the first church determined that the animals were predestined to be there. Who were they to interfere with God's will? they reasoned. Soon, the squirrels multiplied.
The elders of the second church, deciding that they could not harm any of God's creatures, they humanely trapped the squirrels and set them free outside of town. Three days later, the squirrels were back.
It was only the third church that succeeded in keeping the pests away. The elders baptized the squirrels and registered them as members of the church. Now they only see them on Christmas and Easter.
(Thanks, April!)
DRUNK SQUIRRELS
It doesn't take a lot of imagination to find a dead squirrel and pose it with a bottle, but I'll put them here because its expected.

You'll be pleased to know that as of last summer, Bucky was leading a healthy and productive life, gathering nuts and harassing girl squirrels...
(Thanks for all the amusing links. You're a master.)
One: a friend who i've known for ages wrote a short story about squirrels in elementary school creative writing class, it was so f'ing stupid we still make fun of him about it. Not that I had a better one, i think it was about bill and flark who traveled the glalaxy on a maxi-pad. Dont ask.
Two: In Northern Europe we have red squirrels
I don't like squirrels ;-)
